I figured I'd start a new topic on this instead of leaving it in the other hurricane one.
Alright, so I live about six miles from Fernin in Schoharie County and we've been told we got hit the worst. I haven't been able to get to him because my road is completely gone, but both of us are alive (of course you already saw his update above). I made a quick video and put it up on youtube and if anyone would like to see all the pictures I've been taking, they can find me on facebook (Joshua Tymchyn). The quality sucks and I keep forgetting I can't talk when I zoom in and out, but it's good enough for now. Fernin says he"ll get power back in a few days, but I've been told it could be months for my road to fully be restored to 100%, so we'll see how much truth that holds in time. I'm currently online at my families restaurant in Albany county.
